		Count Robert de Montesquiou-Fezensac is a familiar name in the critical literature of the French and English fin de siècle, though the latter part of his distinguished double-barrelled surname is usually dispensed with.
		Montesquiou wished to know everything but be involved in nothing." For Montesquiou, homosexuality ("a vice from which he escaped by a hair's breadth - the sordid situations in which his pride prevented him from being involved") represented the danger of scandal and the defamation of his family's reputation.
		Montesquiou's books of poetry, critical articles and memoirs also appear to be long out of print and untranslated, but second-hand copies of these are more difficult to find.

		Montesquiou was equally proud of his intellectual and literary achievements, which, at least in his own eyes, were considerable.
		Montesquiou was one of the principal promoters of the Art Nouveau style in France, especially the work of the glassmaker Émile Gallé.
		Montesquiou pretended not to notice and even praised Proust's work for its realistic treatment of homosexuality, but he was in fact mortified, writing to a friend: "I have taken to bed, sick from the publication of three volumes that have distressed me."

	Dandy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The poets Algernon Swinburne and Oscar Wilde, Walter Pater, the American artist James McNeill Whistler, Joris-Karl Huysmans and Max Beerbohm were dandies of the period, as was Robert de Montesquiou, who inspired Marcel Proust's Baron de Charlus.
		In Italy Gabriele d'Annunzio and Carlo Bugatti exemplified the artistic bohemian dandyism of the fin de siecle.
		The 20th century had less patience with dandyism: the Prince of Wales, briefly Edward VIII was something of a dandy, and it did not help his public appeal.

	Robert de Montesquiou: The Magnificent Dandy
		This sartorial eccentric was the Comte Robert de Montesquiou-Fezensac, royalist, social snob, literary dilettante and Symbolist poet...
		Montesquiou’s library was housed in a glass conservatory where the works of his favorite authors, Baudelaire, Swinburne and his friend Goncourt, were displayed on low shelves as a background for a small forest of Japanese dwarfed trees, a rare collection of miniature oaks, century-old pines, and tiny delicate maples...
		Eventually Régnier managed to snip Montesquiou in the thumb, an indulgent surgeon pronounced the slight incision to be a wound, the onlookers applauded and the count retired to a hero’s couch (that carved dragon affair) from which he received a steady steam of worshipful visitors.

	Giovanni Boldini's Count Robert de Montesquiou
		Count Robert de Montesquiou (1855-1921) of noble blood, was one of the most flamboyant and arrogant men of his time.
		This I find unlikely since Montesquiou was an early supporter of the American (notably during the Madame X scandal) which leads to the second unlikely explanation that Montesquiou refused a portrait.

	Nine Muses
		Through his generous support of writers like La Fontaine and the intellectual climate that he consistently maintained at his chateau at Chantilly--a haven of free-thinking in an age that by most modern standards was repressively devout--the Prince de Conde was the money that fuelled the muse of most of the noteworthy literature of 17th-century France.
		He was an extremely popular (quel understatement) general and had a spectacular life, including leading a civil war against his cousin Louis XIV and becoming involved in numerous amorous exploits.
		Montesquiou was the inspiration for Baron de Charlus--who appears in several volumes of Proust's

		If he is remembered specifically today it is thanks in particular to the talent and intuition of the pioneer Philippe Julian (Robert de Montesquiou, un prince 1900, Paris, 1965).
		In these, he constructed a form of unique self celebration: he decided upon the costume, the expression, the gesture, the angle of the shot and sometimes he even determined a reading of the picture by means of a written commentary.
		This celebration of Robert de Montesquiou constitutes a matching piece to the exhibition set up by the Musée d'Orsay about the divine comtesse and an echo to the exhibition on Proust presented at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.

		SDR: Montesquiou’s wrath was incurred when sufficient deferential homage was not paid him in return for introducing her to the prominent man she would later marry.
		MOY: Proust’s sinister Baron de Charlus was only one of the Comte’s literary incarnations–there was the Decadent ideal personified in the preening form of the Duke des Esseintes in Huysman’s A rebours; and even, appropriately enough, the Peacock in Rostand’s Chantecler.
		It seems that for decades, the romantically delusional lady believed that Montesquiou was in love with her.

		Robert de Montesquiou or the art of showing off
		If dandyism was a nineteenth century invention, Robert de Montesquiou was no doubt in France its most accomplished representative.
		An artistocrat and an aesthete, he organised his self-celebration with a refined talent and he posed for numerous portraits : this modern Narcissus wanted his image to be immortal.

	The Transcendental Friend no. 11, 9/99 - Idiosyncratica
		Robert de Montesquiou, translated and presented by Jeffrey Jullich
		A friend of the painter Gustave Moreau, Montesquiou was instrumental in the dissemination of the late nineteenth-century vogue of japonoiserie, and the likes of Sarah Bernhardt dressed and groomed to his specifications.
		James McNeill Whistler's elongated, dark portrait of him hangs in the East Gallery of the Frick Museum, and it was with Whistler and his wife Trixie (Beatrix) that Montesquiou carried out a gushing correspondence filled with poems, including the poem "The Moth": Whistler's paintings serve as the basis for much of the poem's imagery.
